As a reader, I’ve recently developed some pet peeves that never used to bother me. Maybe it’s age. These days I find it almost impossible to follow a novel with wild head-hopping, where every spear-carrier is a POV character. I’m also bored by stories where everybody is horrible and there’s nobody to root for.
I want a story to have a hero — an actual protagonist that I can care about.
But not everybody feels that way. Especially the critics.
Right now, I’m reading an early novel by a much-beloved mystery author that head-hops so often I get whiplash. I have no idea what’s going on a good deal of the time. But, hey, I’d kill to have her readership, so I know the problem is mine, not hers.

-sigh- I really enjoyed the post and left quite a long reply but WP doesn’t seem to like me either as I received a ‘Nonce verification failed.’ error message after I submitted my comment. 😦
